spiritual mystery man

Review Score: (10/10)
I LOVE Echo and the Bunnymen. I believe that this is their best album. From the popular 'Killing Moon' to the lullaby of 'Ocean Rain', Ian Mculloch's voice is ethereal and melodic. My other favorites on this album are the intriguing, mystical 'Nocturnal Me', and the pageanistic tale of the 'Yo Yo Man'. If you listen to the lyrics, this album has an otherwordly slant. This is a great cd to listen to at bedtime when the lights are all out. Dream-like and strange,it's a must.
